I sure do remember that one. I think it was Chris' record that got busted. How did that one song go? 'I guess I should've stayed in bed; the pillow wrapped around my head, instead of waking up to find, nightmare of a different kind.....'

With Dad's presence to back her up, Mom's quiet voice suddenly took on a lot more weight. The theme is modern conveniences! I know I'm late, so if I'm too late, and you've already done something else, that's fine!

I'm realizing just how lucky I was to have an older brother who brought the rock and roll into the house ... my mother put up with more from him than she would from me, and therefore I was able to listen to the music without any repercussions :)

I remember the Monkees and their crazy TV show which I watched quite a bit. I had a few of their records and a small player in my room. I don't remember ever being told to 'turn it down' so I guess I didn't have it at ear shattering level.
